Bizarre behaviour using the mount control buttons was created by Patrick

When I use the arrows in the mount tab it occurs unexpected event. The preview button and the run sequence button in the exposure tab turn grey and inactive.
Do you experienced same troubles ?

I noticed the same and if I remember correctly greyed-out went away if you press sideral tracking.
EDIT: EQMod

Ouf as we say in France. I was afraid to have a new problem. Isn't it more simple to restart tracking after manual slewing ?
Let's imagine: you make some manual adjustments and go back to exposure. If you are not informed about it your only solution is to disconnect all and reconnect all. That is what I have done.

The buttons now will be OK even if IDLE. However, you are right, it should probably go back to tracking after manual movement with the joystick or NSWE controls. I'll ask Jean-Luc if he can take a look at this. EQMod is pretty complex now so I'm afraid to make any changes :D

When I do a fresh session, unpark and manually slew in the mount tab it
greys out and stays greyed out, not just while slewing to something.
So you cannot do exposures anymore until
the mount is tracking something or you press sideral/solar/lunar...
